Biography
Her research focuses on the Great Plains of North America. She is currently at work on a history of wind in that region, which is the second part of a projected trilogy on fire, wind, and water. I am interested in an environmental history of the Plains that moves beyond the traditional framework of dust, drought, and declension.
